Just an FYI I backed up my Nodo/unlocked phone and then applied the mango update and was able to back that up as well and go between the two by restoring the appropriate backup.
Will this new version work with the Zune client version released for Mango? I tried using 1.2 but it errored out because I'm on 4.8 instead of 4.7
Just to give a quick update on this, since updating the updatewp.exe file to the latest version that resolved the earlier error, but now crashes noting kernelbase.dll on versions 1.2 and 1.3
Haven't tried 1.1 yet
I'm in the process of rebuilding my desktop (formatting my hard drive), I did the upgrade to mango and would like Keep the option of restoring my data back to NoDo.
What files/folders do I need to backup and restore on my new machine (moving to same machine but, going from 32bit to 64bit, requres a reinstall).
Or should I just restore my phone, rebuild the machine, then reinstall ?
I don't have the latest support tools unfortunately. That's probably the cause of a lot of my troubles.
I'm really wanting to play around with Mango. I'm thinking I may just splurge & buy a membership for the App Hub.
Hi,
Successfully updated and unlocked MangoB2 but backup is not working
Get them from here: Mango Tools
Download both 3 parts: vm_web.exe, VS10-KB2486994-x86.exe and WindowsPhoneDeveloperResources_en-US_Patch1.msp
If not just let me know
Regards, ansar
That link is to the app hub tools to develop software. I have installed them before. How does that get me the updated support tools?
I have them now and plan to release an update later
Sent from my SGH-i917 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
Hi,
There are 2 files: Setup-UpdateWP-x64.exe and Setup-UpdateWP-x86.exe
If you need also another file just let me know
Regards, ansar
You say it doesn't work with the mango zune... but I managed to create a backup and restore it later with your app.
I'm using Mango on my Omnia 7, the mango Zune and also have installed the beta 2 sdk.
You might have gotten the new support tools with the SDK then because the original support tools don't work.
"Update unsuccessful.
Unfortunately, we weren't able to update your phone. Refer to the Zune Software on your computer to find out what happened."
If you do the restore via commandline the error is probably "Version Mismatch" (updatewp.exe /restore)
Can you get back to 7712? You might be able to get this to load if you are 7712 instead of 7720.
Edit: I downloaded 4.7, extracted the MSI for the zunewmdu and found the file with out having to install 4.7 over my 4.8 install.
I zipped it up and attached it to this post, if you download it, please hit thanks for me !
